How is that possible that the class is full, surely people have withdrawn

You and everyone else in this thread analyzing Facebook group numbers are free to call to see if you can get some other info! There's been conflicting information before. Just got to dial the number.

 

[medislife0513]

This application season many people wanted NYITCOM

 

[medislife0513]

They should’ve never sent that waitlist confirmation email honestly

 

[Hopeful_futureDr]

So I called and the rep confirmed everything. The Bridge email was accurate. There are no open spots for the 2029 class.

I thought there would be a couple because I saw people drop here. So ig they were moving people off

I should’ve just sank with the titanic

 

[Hopeful_futureDr]

Ik there were low chances but that email really made me feel like there was some hope. Im actually pretty sad now 😭

 

[medislife0513]

So we’ll wrap this convo up there’s no point

 

[medislife0513]

I’ll dress up now and drive to the school to ask face to face about this, who’s with me?

 

[Hopeful_futureDr]

I'd love to come but I'm currently at work and can't leave

 

[medislife0513]

Nah jk if I do that they’ll think thank god we didn’t start the movement

 

[Hopeful_futureDr]

True 😂😂

 

[Hopeful_futureDr]

I guess this is the end of the purgatory 😭

 

[medislife0513]

I guess this is the end of the purgatory 😭

It is

 

[atomicnugget]

At least it didn’t take this thread 100 pages waiting for the end, thought we’d set a historical record here.

I’d imagine most schools are full at this point, when they say WL movement they prob talking about couple more ppl.

When u consider they get paid per applicant fee, shoot id have an enormous WL too….

That's very disappointing.

The nature of the waitlist is that it moves only when someone from the full class withdraws their position, and its true we saw some withdrawals.
But at the same time it's also possible that the school when sending out their initial acceptances sent out an overshoot number of students anticipating people would fall off. If there was not a lot of people falling off, there's not a lot of space for WL movement.

but for what it's worth, I do think a ZERO waitlist acceptance year is highly unlikely and unusual..., so I'd say it's also unreasonable to assume that it's 100% over for us all

But I think I'm going to now change my mindset lol. If there is further news, its a pleasant surprise, but I think I'm going to emotionally move on..

I was thinking this too but chose to be delusional. There was a Med School HQ livestream that confirmed DO yields were 10-20% higher this year and yes, given how there is an overshoot of acceptances every cycle, these two facts make it so that open spots are incredibly unlikely.

I do think a ZERO waitlist acceptance year is highly unlikely and unusual

I think they did pull from the waitlist already. It's just we don't see updates here or on Admit.org.

Honestly I think the healthiest thing for others and myself is to unwatch this thread and just see what happens.

 

[Tiredandcaffeinated]

Guys it’ll be fine regardless of what happened. I hope everyone at least has an A somewhere. I’m gonna just give up by Friday if I don’t really hear anything. I really believe everything does happen for a reason, praying that whatever is the best for all of us happens, even if we may not see it as what’s best for us. ❤️ thank you for keeping me company on this journey y’all.

I got into ARCOM but it’s so far from New York but it’s ok

 

[medislife0513]

My dad said ARCOM was your first interview back in August and your first acceptance without no waitlist bs maybe it’s meant to be

I’m going to Denver to RVUCOM so honestly, I’m excited and looking forward to it. It seems like a cool city, New York would have been nice to stay a bit longer but idk I’m excited for a new journey.

 

[headlessbitter]

i’m waitlisted from two school and it’s my second time. I got accepted to at least Bridge but after 2 years applying it takes a toll

 

[futurebrowndoctor]

i only got 2 waitlists at this point with no As. at this point i might as well start looking into next year cuz theres basically no shot its gonna work out here. just gotta hope something does with my other waitlist but **** NYITCOM for teasing us and giving us a sense of false hope.

 

[medislife0513]

This means having parents whose parents are alumni don’t mean anything to them

 

[chichi05]

i received an email Friday on it!

When was your interview?

 

[headlessbitter]

When was your interview?

i did my interview with NYITCOM april 9, for message for bridge and applied mid may, got accepted into the bridge program june 13th.

Yeah but do they understand that July we start classes elsewhere ???? And that we may not be able to transfer ?

 

[medislife0513]

Honestly to answer my question: they don’t care

 

[Sever2727]

What I don’t understand is where those seats went for people who dropped them I heard of a lot of seats opened up. So idk doesn’t make sense. But who knows. This cycle I did not see a single post on any website about getting off the WL.

 

[headlessbitter]

i’m wondering if they are withholding seatings for the moment so they can try and push those with multiple A to go else where? or literally wait and see who is still desperate enough to be accepted and uphold their life within days of classes starting.

since NYITCOM has a delayed start, they literally can play the long game if they want at the students sanity 🥲

what someone from the admission team said.View attachment 405195

Because there's so much negativity in this thread, I decided to see how the cycle from 3 years ago went and it mirrors a lot of things here.

1. The waitlist email and an acceptance post three days after from an SDN user. In this case, we just don't know if they pulled anyone or who they pulled because no one posted. I'm inclined to believe they did pull people from the waitlist and we just don't know.

2. The same person in that email, Kathleen Riley, also confirmed a full class. Also, the same thing happened this cycle: communicating with admissions led to us being told "slow WL movement," "we don't know," and "soon."

3. Movement happened, quite literally ~1-2 weeks after.

4. Even more movement and posts.

I think I've hit the screenshot limit, but I saw a 6/29 and a string of mid-July acceptances from that cycle.
______________________

There will be movement and the admissions person wasn't wrong. Based on this small SDN sample size history, it will happen. I don't know how the different yield rate for DO schools this year or those weird or those unsubstantiated rumors of 2025-2026 cycle applicants getting class of 2029 spots (from what I can tell, only three schools did this and the other 2 I've seen mentioned are just unsubstantiated rumors) play a role, but this circumstance has happened before. We're all seemingly shut out and then something happens. It's just slow and unpredictable.

The 2022-2023 thread had a whole 8 pages more of worrying than the one the previous cycle which seemingly went smoothly, but that's all just speculation. The only trend, and it's not even that consistent, that I really see is this pre-waitlist email taking longer and longer to arrive each cycle.

Denver is an awesome city. I live in NY (Long Island) but have spent a lot of time in in Denver AND RVU is an amazing school. Looks like I'll be at the sister school in Montana.

i just saw this and it revived my hope 🥹

I don't want to be rude, but I wouldn't stake THAT much in what I wrote. Not to say you shouldn't keep any hope, even I'm holding out just a little bit, but we're past mid-June. The waitlist email came really late and if things do move along at a reasonable pace according to historic trends, most of us will be wrapping up things like finding housing, buying furniture, and general pre-orientation stuff. That is quite literally what I'm doing right now.

Also, in my personal opinion, at that point unless it's truly your dream school and there's a substantial advantage to re-uprooting the plans you've already accepted and made, you've pretty much committed to wherever you're set to go. I wouldn't know how I would feel about a complete u-turn at that point. Would it even be worth it? I'm personally not sure but I know it'd be incredibly taxing on me. In my case, I'd feel a great amount of disdain for the situation I'm being put through. God forbid, I'm already across the country when I hear back, stuff's all moved in, and now I have some pre-med waitlist decision presented in front of me.
